Yeah Layla will be there. I'm not even that keen but It is a classic riff. Not sure Smoke on the water is quite twiddly enough. OK I'm going to let this run for a few more days for a few more idea, then I put the poll up for voting. I think I can only put up 10 so will just come down to my decision I suppose:)

Learn how I turned 20 ideas into 20 complete songs:

What suprised me is that nobody has mentioned any of Eddie Van Halen's little jingles he has. Like Cathedral, Little Guitars, there are others that he has thats not coming to me off the top of my head.
